Picking one name is hard enough -- and choosing two or more is that much harder! Share your name ideas for parents expecting two or more babies.

Note: This board is for sharing comments about names; however, posts that violate our Community Guidelines in that they are rude, insulting, attacking, etc., will be removed and their authors warned or banned. Please use discretion -- less than positive comments can still be worded in uninsulting ways.

Whether you are a mother-to-be of multiples, or a Name Nerd that likes to help others; everyone is welcome! As the introduction suggests, picking one name is hard enough, and choosing two or more is that much harder! Here are some guidelines to make sure this board runs smoothly.

1) Please try not to bump posts that are more than a week old. The OP is likely not checking them, and that post will bump newer posts off the top page. I would hate for someone not to get name help for a post they created two days ago because we have a lot of posts from six months ago being bumped up 'just for fun'. The exception to this being the OP bumping the post her/himself in order to give us an update. Remember, parents are here looking for real suggestions for baby names. If you want to share you favorite baby names just for fun, please visit the Baby Name Games board, which you'll find a link to in the right hand column of your screen.

2) Please DO NOT pretend that you are the mother of multiples if you are not; you will be found out, your profile will be reported, and your post(s) will be locked. If you want to play a name game, please start a name game on the Baby Name Games board, but faking WILL NOT be tolerated.

Do not slander or attack anyone's name choices, or you WILL BE reported. Personal attacks are a big rule breaker on naming boards. Typing "your baby names are trailer trash" is a personal attack; typing "I think your baby names sound like trailer trash" is rude, but NOT a personal attack. Be very careful how you phrase your posts!! All posts that break the BBC guidelines will be reported.

Ex: A helpful comment would be "I think that Alyysyyne spelled Alison looks much prettier, and if it's spelled traditionally she won't have to constantly spell it out for people". A hurtful comment would be "what kind of trailer trash mother uses a spelling like that?". The latter comment will be reported.

Everyone has a right to name their child how they wish; this board is here to help parents make that difficult decision. Many times, parents want to keep their names private from family and friends until the babies are born. This board is an outlet for parents to reveal their names to people not in their immediate circle, and get feedback on their chosen names.

This board is also a way to inform parents of current naming trends and popularity of names. It can be quite a shock to find out that your very unique name of Aidan is the Number 1 name in the USA, followed closely by Number 2 Jaden.
